1
00:00:02,449 --> 00:00:03,906
Okay, people!
Listen up.
2
00:00:04,409 --> 00:00:06,651
A new attorney has joined us,
Faye Richardson.
3
00:00:06,745 --> 00:00:09,182
If you want me gone, there's only
one way to make that happen,
4
00:00:09,206 --> 00:00:11,619
convince me you people
can be trusted to fly right.
5
00:00:11,708 --> 00:00:13,745
I want you to find a loophole
in the Bar's bylaws
6
00:00:13,835 --> 00:00:15,872
that I can use
to force them to remove her.
7
00:00:16,046 --> 00:00:18,789
I come here and give you
a chance to clean up your act,
8
00:00:19,049 --> 00:00:21,837
but I find out the managing partner
wants me gone so badly,
9
00:00:21,927 --> 00:00:23,793
he ordered someone
to hack the New York Bar!
10
00:00:23,887 --> 00:00:25,949
Louis, you don't understand.
She knew before I even told her.
11
00:00:25,973 --> 00:00:27,134
Bullshit. You are fired.
12
00:00:27,224 --> 00:00:29,136
Louis, you had no right
to ask him that.
13
00:00:29,226 --> 00:00:30,512
Right, Harvey?
14
00:00:30,852 --> 00:00:32,059
Right.
15
00:00:32,145 --> 00:00:33,206
You're just agreeing
with Donna
16
00:00:33,230 --> 00:00:34,832
because you don't want her
to be mad at you
17
00:00:34,856 --> 00:00:36,222
now that you're
in a relationship.
18
00:00:36,567 --> 00:00:39,230
You may be special master,
but I'm managing partner.
19
00:00:39,319 --> 00:00:40,810
That gives me
certain rights...
20
00:00:40,904 --> 00:00:42,987
You're not
managing partner anymore.
21
00:00:43,365 --> 00:00:44,981
Effective immediately.
22
00:00:45,075 --> 00:00:48,193
You're stripped of your title
and all the duties that go with it.
23
00:00:54,668 --> 00:00:57,126
Here, this might take
the edge off.
24
00:00:57,212 --> 00:00:59,204
Okay, Sheila,
I just got demoted.
25
00:00:59,298 --> 00:01:00,775
It's the worst thing
that's ever happened to me.
26
00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:03,667
How is a cup of rooibos
going to take the edge off?
27
00:01:05,596 --> 00:01:07,337
Just drink it.
28
00:01:12,519 --> 00:01:14,727
Good. Now,
I have to ask,
29
00:01:15,647 --> 00:01:16,708
is this really
the worst thing
30
00:01:16,732 --> 00:01:17,792
that's ever happened
to you?
31
00:01:17,816 --> 00:01:19,432
Because as I recall,
32
00:01:19,526 --> 00:01:20,966
you didn't even want
managing partner
33
00:01:21,028 --> 00:01:22,360
when Donna asked you
to take it.
34
00:01:22,446 --> 00:01:24,904
Because she asked me the night
I found out you were pregnant.
35
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,449
It was the only time in my entire life
I would've said I didn't want the job.
36
00:01:28,535 --> 00:01:30,447
And did you actually enjoy it
once you had it?
37
00:01:30,537 --> 00:01:31,994
- You know I did.
- Really?
38
00:01:32,873 --> 00:01:34,489
Trying to manage
your best friend,
39
00:01:34,583 --> 00:01:36,370
accepting Brian Altman's
resignation,
40
00:01:36,460 --> 00:01:38,326
taking Robert Zane's name
off the wall.
41
00:01:38,420 --> 00:01:40,958
Sheila, you said you fell in love
with me because I was a lion.
42
00:01:41,465 --> 00:01:43,832
Now I'm just a housecat
with his balls cut off.
43
00:01:43,925 --> 00:01:44,986
- Louis...
- Hear what I just said?
44
00:01:45,010 --> 00:01:46,010
I'm a ball-less cat.
45
00:01:46,094 --> 00:01:47,614
Which reminds me,
when are we getting another cat?
46
00:01:47,638 --> 00:01:48,970
I'll tell you when. Never!
47
00:01:49,056 --> 00:01:50,325
But you said you'd be open
to a hairless!
48
00:01:50,349 --> 00:01:52,136
That was said
in a vulnerable moment!
49
00:01:55,270 --> 00:01:57,182
Louis, the point is,
50
00:01:57,898 --> 00:01:59,000
it's not the end
of the world,
51
00:01:59,024 --> 00:02:01,186
and this isn't going
to last forever.
52
00:02:01,276 --> 00:02:05,646
Sheila, I know the job
wasn't sunshine and rainbows,
53
00:02:06,531 --> 00:02:08,272
but I was getting
really good at it.
54
00:02:08,825 --> 00:02:12,910
And I don't know how long I can keep
going to work not being in charge.
55
00:02:20,504 --> 00:02:23,372
- Hey.
- Hey.
56
00:02:23,465 --> 00:02:25,705
Couldn't help but notice
you didn't come over last night.
57
00:02:26,468 --> 00:02:27,504
I know.
58
00:02:27,594 --> 00:02:29,072
Did you also know
that's the first night
59
00:02:29,096 --> 00:02:30,156
we haven't spent
together since...
60
00:02:30,180 --> 00:02:31,180
I did.
61
00:02:31,848 --> 00:02:33,089
Donna, what's going on?
62
00:02:33,809 --> 00:02:34,994
I didn't know
how to make sense
63
00:02:35,018 --> 00:02:36,259
of you taking
my side with Louis
64
00:02:36,353 --> 00:02:37,513
when you didn't agree
with me.
65
00:02:37,562 --> 00:02:38,748
What do you mean?
I thought you would like that.
66
00:02:38,772 --> 00:02:40,013
Well, I don't.
67
00:02:40,107 --> 00:02:42,645
I don't want you saying things
that you don't believe.
68
00:02:43,276 --> 00:02:44,596
And I want to know
why you did it.
69
00:02:45,153 --> 00:02:48,066
I guess because
I was afraid you'd be mad at me.
70
00:02:48,657 --> 00:02:50,009
Well, that's never
stopped you before.
71
00:02:50,033 --> 00:02:51,774
Because before,
we weren't together.
72
00:02:52,619 --> 00:02:54,861
Oh, my God. Of course.
73
00:02:55,872 --> 00:02:57,112
Harvey, I'm not
gonna leave you.
74
00:02:57,791 --> 00:02:59,227
And I'm certainly
not gonna leave you
75
00:02:59,251 --> 00:03:00,537
over something
that happens here.
76
00:03:01,128 --> 00:03:02,855
I also don't want something
that happens here
77
00:03:02,879 --> 00:03:04,607
to be the reason we don't spend
the night together.
78
00:03:04,631 --> 00:03:05,917
Neither do I.
79
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:08,667
I guess we're just gonna have
to figure out a way
80
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,798
to make sure that our work
doesn't intrude on our lives.
81
00:03:12,097 --> 00:03:14,134
Well, what if I said
82
00:03:14,224 --> 00:03:17,137
we could start by going out
one night a week, just us,
83
00:03:17,227 --> 00:03:19,765
and talk about anything
but this place?
84
00:03:20,647 --> 00:03:22,263
I'd say that's a great idea.
85
00:03:26,194 --> 00:03:27,194
What?
86
00:03:27,279 --> 00:03:29,919
Where did you get this idea
for the whole once-a-week dinner thing?
87
00:03:30,031 --> 00:03:31,067
All right, look.
88
00:03:31,158 --> 00:03:33,616
Once in a while,
not on a regular basis...
89
00:03:35,036 --> 00:03:36,527
I like to watch Oprah
in the mornings.
90
00:03:37,289 --> 00:03:38,746
No way.
91
00:03:38,832 --> 00:03:40,243
It can't be that.
I'm not buying it.
92
00:03:40,375 --> 00:03:41,411
I'm serious, Donna.
93
00:03:41,501 --> 00:03:43,618
You'd be surprised
how common a problem it is
94
00:03:43,712 --> 00:03:46,500
for couples to strike
the right work-life balance.
95
00:03:46,631 --> 00:03:48,964
- Who are you?
- Look, I know things about you, too.
96
00:03:49,176 --> 00:03:51,463
Does the word "Albuquerque"
mean anything to you?
97
00:03:51,553 --> 00:03:53,089
Now, I told you that
in confidence,
98
00:03:53,180 --> 00:03:54,782
and for you to bring that up now,
that is totally...
99
00:03:54,806 --> 00:03:56,886
- You see? I got ya.
- I hate to interrupt,
100
00:03:56,933 --> 00:03:59,370
but you two need to drop whatever
you're doing and go see Louis.
101
00:03:59,394 --> 00:04:00,760
What is it, Gretchen?
102
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,018
Faye stripped him
of managing partner last night.
103
00:04:05,317 --> 00:04:06,398
Oh, my God.
104
00:04:07,444 --> 00:04:08,935
We need to go
to him right now.
105
00:04:10,030 --> 00:04:11,316
No.
106
00:04:11,406 --> 00:04:12,772
You go to him.
107
00:04:12,866 --> 00:04:14,198
I need to go see Faye.
108
00:04:18,872 --> 00:04:20,534
Isn't it enough
you took his firm?
109
00:04:20,624 --> 00:04:22,035
You had to take
his title, too?
110
00:04:22,417 --> 00:04:24,079
I take it you heard
about Louis.
111
00:04:24,169 --> 00:04:26,627
You're damn right I did,
and this isn't gonna stand.
112
00:04:26,713 --> 00:04:30,172
It is, because he instructed
a subordinate to hack the New York Bar.
113
00:04:30,258 --> 00:04:32,750
He said he didn't order Benjamin
to do that, and I believe him.
114
00:04:32,844 --> 00:04:34,301
I don't care what you believe.
115
00:04:34,387 --> 00:04:36,344
He tried to fire the man
when he got caught.
116
00:04:36,431 --> 00:04:37,431
That's unacceptable.
117
00:04:37,516 --> 00:04:40,179
Damn it, not everybody
has to do everything by your book.
118
00:04:40,268 --> 00:04:42,430
And what you're still
failing to comprehend
119
00:04:42,521 --> 00:04:45,559
is that if you choose to disobey me,
there'll be consequences.
120
00:04:45,649 --> 00:04:48,357
You want consequences,
I'll give you consequences.
121
00:04:48,527 --> 00:04:49,938
What's that supposed
to mean?
122
00:04:50,028 --> 00:04:52,441
It means Louis may not
be managing partner anymore,
123
00:04:52,781 --> 00:04:54,693
but I'm sure as hell not
answering to you.
124
00:05:00,205 --> 00:05:03,573
See the money,
wanna stay for your meal
125
00:05:03,667 --> 00:05:06,956
Get another piece of pie
for your wife
126
00:05:07,045 --> 00:05:10,334
Everybody wanna know
how it feel
127
00:05:10,423 --> 00:05:13,541
Everybody wanna see
what it's like
128
00:05:13,635 --> 00:05:16,594
I'll even eat a bean pie
I don't mind
129
00:05:16,888 --> 00:05:18,675
Me and missy is so early
130
00:05:18,765 --> 00:05:20,347
Busy, busy making money
131
00:05:20,433 --> 00:05:21,433
All right!
132
00:05:22,185 --> 00:05:24,973
All step back
I'm 'bout to dance
133
00:05:27,899 --> 00:05:29,765
The greenback boogie
134
00:05:40,620 --> 00:05:41,620
Louis, I just heard.
135
00:05:41,705 --> 00:05:43,665
Well, good for you.
I don't want to talk about it.
136
00:05:43,999 --> 00:05:46,742
Okay, then why don't you tell me
what you're gonna do about it?
137
00:05:46,835 --> 00:05:49,202
I got demoted, Donna.
There's nothing I can do about it,
138
00:05:49,296 --> 00:05:50,662
and I'd rather
not dwell on it,
139
00:05:50,755 --> 00:05:51,983
so unless you want
to get Harvey
140
00:05:52,007 --> 00:05:54,124
so the two of you
can gang up on me again,
141
00:05:54,342 --> 00:05:55,549
I would rather be alone.
142
00:05:55,635 --> 00:05:56,876
Louis,
143
00:05:57,804 --> 00:05:59,090
we didn't gang up on you.
144
00:05:59,180 --> 00:06:00,420
What the hell
would you call it?
145
00:06:00,473 --> 00:06:01,589
A mistake.
146
00:06:01,683 --> 00:06:03,424
And if it makes
you feel any better,
147
00:06:03,518 --> 00:06:04,829
I already spoke
to Harvey about it,
148
00:06:04,853 --> 00:06:06,163
because you weren't
the only one upset
149
00:06:06,187 --> 00:06:07,187
about him siding
with me.
150
00:06:07,272 --> 00:06:08,272
Why would that upset you?
151
00:06:08,356 --> 00:06:10,251
Probably because my sister turned
every man she was ever with
152
00:06:10,275 --> 00:06:12,062
into a doormat,
but that's not the point.
153
00:06:12,193 --> 00:06:14,193
- You have a sister?
- Not the point either, Louis.
154
00:06:14,237 --> 00:06:16,317
She's much older,
and I don't want to talk about her.
155
00:06:16,489 --> 00:06:19,698
What I want to say is that what happened
last night will never happen again.
156
00:06:21,036 --> 00:06:23,744
I don't want our relationship
to affect how we treat you.
157
00:06:26,750 --> 00:06:29,117
- You really mean that?
- I do.
158
00:06:29,794 --> 00:06:31,660
And, Louis, if you ever need
me or Harvey
159
00:06:31,755 --> 00:06:33,462
during any of this
Faye bullshit,
160
00:06:33,548 --> 00:06:34,789
we are here for you.
161
00:06:38,595 --> 00:06:40,552
Hey, you hear
about Louis?
162
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:42,596
Of course I did.
It's all over the firm.
163
00:06:42,682 --> 00:06:43,763
- Well?
- Well, what?
164
00:06:44,309 --> 00:06:45,470
What are we gonna do
about it?
165
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:46,871
We're not gonna do
anything about it,
166
00:06:46,895 --> 00:06:48,456
because doing shit like
whatever you're thinking of
167
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:49,916
is what got us in this mess
in the first place.
168
00:06:49,940 --> 00:06:51,167
Are you trying
to put this on me?
169
00:06:51,191 --> 00:06:53,899
Samantha, I am fully aware that you are
not the reason she is here,
170
00:06:53,985 --> 00:06:55,963
but now that she is here,
I'm not gonna make things worse
171
00:06:55,987 --> 00:06:57,478
by doing more
unethical shit.
172
00:06:57,572 --> 00:06:59,529
Then what if we could
come up with a way
173
00:06:59,616 --> 00:07:00,982
to get her out
on the up-and-up?
174
00:07:01,368 --> 00:07:02,368
What kind of way?
175
00:07:02,619 --> 00:07:04,611
I don't know,
but we are lawyers.
176
00:07:04,704 --> 00:07:06,349
We ought to be able
to come up with something.
177
00:07:06,373 --> 00:07:07,373
You're a lawyer?
178
00:07:07,457 --> 00:07:08,684
I thought all you did
was sashay in a room,
179
00:07:08,708 --> 00:07:10,770
tell someone you got them,
and make them do what you want.
180
00:07:10,794 --> 00:07:12,660
Well, that was
my major,
181
00:07:12,754 --> 00:07:14,962
but I have been known
to open a book or two.
182
00:07:16,132 --> 00:07:17,498
Look, Alex,
183
00:07:17,592 --> 00:07:20,335
I have grown
really fond of Louis.
184
00:07:20,595 --> 00:07:22,211
He's gotta be hurting.
185
00:07:22,555 --> 00:07:24,638
What do you say
we at least give it a try?
186
00:07:25,558 --> 00:07:26,890
Okay, Samantha.
187
00:07:27,435 --> 00:07:28,435
I'm in.
188
00:07:31,064 --> 00:07:32,100
Mr. Specter.
189
00:07:32,399 --> 00:07:34,168
I agreed to meet with you,
but I have to tell you,
190
00:07:34,192 --> 00:07:36,605
the last person I need right now
is another lawyer.
191
00:07:36,861 --> 00:07:38,318
Please, call me Harvey,
192
00:07:38,530 --> 00:07:40,271
and the last person
you need
193
00:07:40,365 --> 00:07:43,278
is another asshole whose agenda
is at odds with your own.
194
00:07:43,368 --> 00:07:44,984
And what agenda is that?
195
00:07:45,078 --> 00:07:46,990
Look, you didn't want
this takeover,
196
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,618
but your board used your own law firm
to push it through anyway.
197
00:07:50,166 --> 00:07:51,202
How do you know that?
198
00:07:51,292 --> 00:07:53,312
Because I know what it's like
to have the house you built
199
00:07:53,336 --> 00:07:55,248
get handed over
to someone else,
200
00:07:55,338 --> 00:07:57,258
and it just so happens
the people doing it to you
201
00:07:57,340 --> 00:07:59,140
are related to the woman
who's doing it to me.
202
00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:00,632
So you're saying
don't hire you
203
00:08:00,719 --> 00:08:02,051
because you care
about me,
204
00:08:02,137 --> 00:08:04,094
do it because we share
a common enemy?
205
00:08:04,180 --> 00:08:05,716
You want your lawyer
to give you a hug,
206
00:08:05,807 --> 00:08:07,207
or you want him to get
the job done?
207
00:08:07,308 --> 00:08:09,220
I want my goddamn
company back.
208
00:08:09,310 --> 00:08:10,926
Then the first thing
we need to do
209
00:08:11,021 --> 00:08:13,354
is put the brakes on this sale
by suing the board.
210
00:08:14,232 --> 00:08:16,269
A CEO can't sue
his own company.
211
00:08:16,359 --> 00:08:18,772
As CEO, no, he can't.
212
00:08:18,862 --> 00:08:20,444
As a shareholder, he can.
213
00:08:22,741 --> 00:08:24,983
Seems like you put a lot
of thought into this
214
00:08:25,076 --> 00:08:26,533
before you came to see me.
215
00:08:26,619 --> 00:08:28,827
Think what I'll do
once you officially hire me.
216
00:08:29,622 --> 00:08:30,829
What do you say?
217
00:08:31,416 --> 00:08:33,703
I say start drafting
that suit.
218
00:08:34,210 --> 00:08:36,452
Took care of that
before I got here, too.
219
00:08:37,380 --> 00:08:41,044
Dan, we do this, they're not gonna
take it lying down.
220
00:08:41,468 --> 00:08:42,959
I need to know
you're all in.
221
00:08:43,511 --> 00:08:45,423
I'm already losing control
of my company.
222
00:08:45,513 --> 00:08:47,425
What else have
I got to lose?
223
00:08:54,105 --> 00:08:55,971
Katrina, do you have
a moment?
224
00:08:56,566 --> 00:08:59,274
Actually, Susan, this isn't a great time.
I'm neck-deep in the...
225
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,272
The VersaLife case,
I know.
226
00:09:02,238 --> 00:09:04,355
Well, you probably don't know
that this firm
227
00:09:04,449 --> 00:09:06,657
nearly lost VersaLife once
because of me
228
00:09:06,743 --> 00:09:08,484
and I'm not about
to let it happen again.
229
00:09:08,578 --> 00:09:10,458
Which is all the more reason
to let me help you.
230
00:09:10,497 --> 00:09:11,497
Help me?
231
00:09:11,664 --> 00:09:13,997
I noticed you've been working
without an associate
232
00:09:14,084 --> 00:09:15,450
ever since Brian resigned.
233
00:09:15,543 --> 00:09:17,396
And you thought if you could fill
Brian's shoes,
234
00:09:17,420 --> 00:09:18,660
I'd take you on
as my associate.
235
00:09:18,963 --> 00:09:19,963
Something like that.
236
00:09:20,173 --> 00:09:22,506
Well, I appreciate you
putting yourself out there,
237
00:09:22,592 --> 00:09:23,833
but I've got this handled.
238
00:09:23,927 --> 00:09:25,884
Look, in your discovery,
there's an email
239
00:09:25,970 --> 00:09:28,963
from your CEO to his board
about their stock tanking.
240
00:09:29,432 --> 00:09:32,846
I know that, but it was after
it had already started.
241
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,182
The original date
was whited out.
242
00:09:38,274 --> 00:09:40,311
See? You can tell.
243
00:09:41,361 --> 00:09:42,568
It's not a smoking gun...
244
00:09:42,654 --> 00:09:44,691
But we need to be able
to explain it.
245
00:09:45,824 --> 00:09:47,235
Good find, Susan.
246
00:09:47,575 --> 00:09:50,158
If you hadn't caught that,
we would've been in trouble.
247
00:09:50,787 --> 00:09:51,787
We?
248
00:09:52,288 --> 00:09:53,768
Does that mean
we're working together?
249
00:09:54,374 --> 00:09:56,206
It means I'm giving you
a chance.
250
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,544
Louis, I'm so glad you were able
to have the time to come out.
251
00:10:00,630 --> 00:10:02,041
Well, honestly,
Your Honor,
252
00:10:02,298 --> 00:10:04,210
I could use the time
out of the office.
253
00:10:04,300 --> 00:10:06,383
Don't start with the
"Your Honor" crap, okay?
254
00:10:06,511 --> 00:10:08,673
- I'm here as your friend.
- Okay, then, Saul...
255
00:10:09,514 --> 00:10:10,800
Old friend.
256
00:10:11,599 --> 00:10:13,716
Let's get to it.
What kind of trouble you in?
257
00:10:14,435 --> 00:10:16,795
Louis, I'm not here about my troubles.
I'm here about yours.
258
00:10:17,564 --> 00:10:18,896
What are you
talking about?
259
00:10:18,982 --> 00:10:20,939
You remember when we were back
at Harvard
260
00:10:21,025 --> 00:10:23,608
and you charted out
your whole career?
261
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,312
Partner at
a top law firm, check.
262
00:10:26,406 --> 00:10:27,897
Get my name
on the wall, check.
263
00:10:27,991 --> 00:10:29,698
And once
I've done all that,
264
00:10:30,118 --> 00:10:31,325
become a judge.
265
00:10:31,536 --> 00:10:34,153
But what does that have
to do with anything?
266
00:10:34,247 --> 00:10:35,349
Well, it has to do
with the fact
267
00:10:35,373 --> 00:10:36,864
that Amy Janon's seat
is opening up
268
00:10:36,958 --> 00:10:39,166
and you'd be the perfect person
to replace her.
269
00:10:40,044 --> 00:10:42,036
Saul, are you offering me
a judgeship?
270
00:10:42,422 --> 00:10:43,458
I am.
271
00:10:46,050 --> 00:10:48,195
This has something to do
with Faye Richardson, doesn't it?
272
00:10:48,219 --> 00:10:50,427
- Damn it.
- Louis, your ship is sinking,
273
00:10:50,513 --> 00:10:52,116
and you shouldn't have
to go down with it.
274
00:10:52,140 --> 00:10:53,847
Saul, that is bullshit.
275
00:10:54,517 --> 00:10:56,759
I can weather this storm,
and I don't need your charity.
276
00:10:56,853 --> 00:10:58,344
It's not charity.
277
00:10:58,730 --> 00:11:00,938
You're the best lawyer
I ever worked with.
278
00:11:01,441 --> 00:11:02,773
And normally I'd say,
279
00:11:02,859 --> 00:11:05,522
"Don't worry.
It'll come around again."
280
00:11:05,612 --> 00:11:08,195
But you come out on the wrong side
of this Faye thing,
281
00:11:08,281 --> 00:11:10,193
and the only robe
you're ever gonna wear
282
00:11:10,283 --> 00:11:12,366
is the one that's hanging
in your bathroom.
283
00:11:17,498 --> 00:11:18,705
What the hell is this?
284
00:11:18,791 --> 00:11:20,623
It's a recusal form
for you to sign.
285
00:11:20,710 --> 00:11:23,202
It turns out, I got a case
against your old firm,
286
00:11:23,296 --> 00:11:25,413
and make no mistake,
I'm taking it.
287
00:11:25,798 --> 00:11:26,879
I get it.
288
00:11:26,966 --> 00:11:29,549
You don't think I've embraced this firm.
Well, I have.
289
00:11:30,136 --> 00:11:32,628
So as long as you
conduct yourself aboveboard,
290
00:11:32,722 --> 00:11:34,679
I won't just sign this,
I'll be rooting for you.
291
00:11:34,766 --> 00:11:37,679
Bullshit. You'll root for the people
who embraced your system.
292
00:11:37,769 --> 00:11:40,056
But won't matter, because after
I kick their ass,
293
00:11:40,146 --> 00:11:41,957
the world's gonna know
my system is better than yours.
294
00:11:41,981 --> 00:11:43,347
And what system is that?
295
00:11:43,566 --> 00:11:46,434
The one where you play
by whatever rules suit you?
296
00:11:46,527 --> 00:11:48,339
Because if that's
what you're gonna use to win this...
297
00:11:48,363 --> 00:11:49,840
I'll tell you what
I'm gonna use to win.
298
00:11:49,864 --> 00:11:51,321
Whatever I fucking have to.
299
00:11:51,407 --> 00:11:52,898
Then I'll be forced
to remind you,
300
00:11:52,992 --> 00:11:54,952
you cross one line,
and you'll be out on your ass.
301
00:11:54,994 --> 00:11:56,860
I don't need to cross
any lines, Faye.
302
00:11:56,955 --> 00:11:58,912
You de-balled
these guys so much,
303
00:11:58,998 --> 00:12:00,614
all I had to do
was threaten a lawsuit,
304
00:12:00,708 --> 00:12:02,290
and they're shaking
in their boots.
305
00:12:02,377 --> 00:12:05,791
So unless you're here to take my title
like you took Louis',
306
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,041
we're done.
307
00:12:08,258 --> 00:12:09,544
I'll be watching you.
308
00:12:10,593 --> 00:12:11,800
Enjoy the show.
309
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:21,636
Sheila...
310
00:12:22,730 --> 00:12:24,266
I want to talk to you
about something
311
00:12:24,357 --> 00:12:25,668
because you're probably
gonna hear about it anyway,
312
00:12:25,692 --> 00:12:27,012
but I want you
to hear it from me.
313
00:12:27,193 --> 00:12:28,684
What is it, Louis?
314
00:12:29,404 --> 00:12:31,612
I was offered a judgeship,
and I turned it down.
315
00:12:33,032 --> 00:12:36,116
You turned down a judgeship
without even discussing it with me?
316
00:12:36,995 --> 00:12:40,363
Louis, being a judge
has always been your dream.
317
00:12:40,623 --> 00:12:42,034
I know that.
318
00:12:42,125 --> 00:12:44,583
But a judge makes
a fifth of what I do.
319
00:12:44,669 --> 00:12:45,830
We have a child
on the way,
320
00:12:46,337 --> 00:12:48,374
not to mention my firm
is in trouble.
321
00:12:48,464 --> 00:12:50,192
I don't want to leave
my friends in the lurch.
322
00:12:50,216 --> 00:12:51,318
If they were really
your friends,
323
00:12:51,342 --> 00:12:53,070
they wouldn't be asking you
to turn this down.
324
00:12:53,094 --> 00:12:54,363
They didn't ask me
to turn it down,
325
00:12:54,387 --> 00:12:55,447
because I didn't tell
them about it.
326
00:12:55,471 --> 00:12:56,824
Well, you didn't tell me
about it either!
327
00:12:56,848 --> 00:12:58,033
Okay, Sheila,
what is going on?
328
00:12:58,057 --> 00:12:59,343
Where is this
coming from?
329
00:13:01,853 --> 00:13:03,970
I went to Saul, Louis.
330
00:13:05,606 --> 00:13:06,813
You did what?
331
00:13:06,899 --> 00:13:10,313
You said you didn't know how long you could
keep going not being in charge.
332
00:13:10,403 --> 00:13:12,235
So you fabricated
a judgeship for me?
333
00:13:12,322 --> 00:13:13,938
I didn't fabricate anything.
334
00:13:14,449 --> 00:13:18,068
Every time I see the man,
he says you belong on the bench.
335
00:13:19,579 --> 00:13:21,070
When I went to him, Louis,
336
00:13:21,914 --> 00:13:23,780
he was overjoyed.
337
00:13:25,251 --> 00:13:26,833
- He was?
- He was.
338
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,082
Louis, Saul said
if things don't work out,
339
00:13:31,132 --> 00:13:33,374
you will never get
this chance again.
340
00:13:33,885 --> 00:13:36,502
All I'm asking is for you
to think about it.
341
00:13:37,930 --> 00:13:40,172
Okay, Sheila.
I'll sleep on it.
342
00:13:41,934 --> 00:13:44,768
Mmm, I got it.
343
00:13:45,271 --> 00:13:47,291
Then lay it on me, because we've been
at this for hours,
344
00:13:47,315 --> 00:13:49,272
- and I'm about to give up.
- Okay, look here.
345
00:13:49,692 --> 00:13:51,092
"If the presence
of a special master
346
00:13:51,152 --> 00:13:52,939
"causes significant harm
to a firm,
347
00:13:53,196 --> 00:13:54,528
"they can be removed."
348
00:13:54,614 --> 00:13:56,025
But she hasn't caused
any harm.
349
00:13:56,199 --> 00:13:58,031
She hasn't caused
any harm yet.
350
00:13:58,117 --> 00:14:00,985
But if all of a sudden, a client left,
said it was her fault,
351
00:14:01,079 --> 00:14:02,473
and then that started
an avalanche...
352
00:14:02,497 --> 00:14:04,257
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What are you talking about?
353
00:14:04,540 --> 00:14:05,934
I'm talking about going
to Gavin Andrews,
354
00:14:05,958 --> 00:14:07,436
- getting him to leave...
- Are you crazy?
355
00:14:07,460 --> 00:14:09,042
- Just hear me out.
- No, Samantha.
356
00:14:09,420 --> 00:14:11,628
Inducing a client to leave
isn't Faye causing us harm.
357
00:14:11,714 --> 00:14:12,875
It's us causing us harm.
358
00:14:12,965 --> 00:14:14,797
- He'd come back!
- I don't care!
359
00:14:14,926 --> 00:14:16,758
- This discussion is over.
- Jesus Christ,
360
00:14:16,844 --> 00:14:18,804
it's one little thing
to get her out of our lives.
361
00:14:18,888 --> 00:14:20,845
It's not a little thing.
It's conspiracy.
362
00:14:21,099 --> 00:14:23,327
And it sure as hell isn't
on the up-and-up like you agreed to.
363
00:14:23,351 --> 00:14:25,791
I don't believe it. When did you
become such a goddamn coward?
364
00:14:26,145 --> 00:14:29,058
- Excuse me?
- You had Katrina pretend to be me,
365
00:14:29,148 --> 00:14:31,606
and you did that because you had
the balls to win.
366
00:14:31,692 --> 00:14:33,900
And if I say yes
because you call me a coward,
367
00:14:33,986 --> 00:14:34,986
then I am one.
368
00:14:35,071 --> 00:14:37,031
So do what you want,
but I'm not fucking doing it.
369
00:14:37,156 --> 00:14:38,488
And neither should you.
370
00:14:45,873 --> 00:14:47,034
I have to say,
371
00:14:47,125 --> 00:14:50,209
we may end up getting
totally screwed on this, but...
372
00:14:51,587 --> 00:14:53,670
Susan, you have really done
your research.
373
00:14:54,549 --> 00:14:57,041
Thank you.
That means a lot to me.
374
00:15:00,847 --> 00:15:03,134
Can I ask your advice
on something?
375
00:15:03,433 --> 00:15:05,345
It's kind of personal.
376
00:15:05,685 --> 00:15:06,926
Of course, Susan.
What is it?
377
00:15:09,981 --> 00:15:11,597
So there's this paralegal.
378
00:15:11,691 --> 00:15:14,775
He's smart and funny,
and he and I just click.
379
00:15:14,861 --> 00:15:16,568
I've certainly seen
that happen before.
380
00:15:16,737 --> 00:15:19,400
I just... I know how closely
you worked with Brian,
381
00:15:19,490 --> 00:15:22,983
and I guess I want to know
how you kept things professional.
382
00:15:23,161 --> 00:15:25,027
I don't want to get
into me and Brian, Susan,
383
00:15:26,038 --> 00:15:27,574
but if you want my advice,
384
00:15:28,541 --> 00:15:29,952
I'd find
a different paralegal.
385
00:15:31,210 --> 00:15:32,576
Thanks.
386
00:15:32,670 --> 00:15:34,206
All right, let's get
back to this.
387
00:15:35,465 --> 00:15:37,172
Actually, I had an idea.
388
00:15:38,176 --> 00:15:41,214
Lead counsel on the other side
is a longtime family friend.
389
00:15:41,304 --> 00:15:43,091
What if I could convince her
to settle?
390
00:15:43,556 --> 00:15:45,297
That's why you picked
this case, isn't it?
391
00:15:46,184 --> 00:15:48,847
Because you thought you could
use your connections to impress me?
392
00:15:48,936 --> 00:15:51,679
There's nothing wrong with taking advantage
of an opportunity.
393
00:15:52,273 --> 00:15:54,515
No, you're right.
There isn't.
394
00:15:54,817 --> 00:15:57,480
But in
this particular instance,
395
00:15:57,570 --> 00:15:59,937
what you're proposing
isn't going to work.
396
00:16:01,199 --> 00:16:02,360
But how do you know?
397
00:16:02,909 --> 00:16:04,400
Because I know.
398
00:16:04,869 --> 00:16:05,905
- But...
- Susan,
399
00:16:06,412 --> 00:16:09,371
being an associate means
knowing when to drop it.
400
00:16:10,458 --> 00:16:12,120
Show me you can do that.
401
00:16:26,390 --> 00:16:27,576
If it pleases
the court,
402
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,308
I would like to tell a story
about a noble ship's captain,
403
00:16:30,561 --> 00:16:32,894
a villainous pirate by the name
of Faye Pooperson,
404
00:16:33,189 --> 00:16:34,976
and a foul miscarriage
of justice.
405
00:16:35,066 --> 00:16:38,104
Objection, Your Honor.
He's testifying.
406
00:16:38,653 --> 00:16:40,189
And my name
isn't Pooperson.
407
00:16:40,279 --> 00:16:42,039
Richardson, Pooperson,
what's the difference?
408
00:16:42,198 --> 00:16:44,281
That's unorthodox,
but I'll allow it.
409
00:16:44,408 --> 00:16:45,615
You're just him
in a wig.
410
00:16:45,701 --> 00:16:47,988
A wig, if I may say,
you are rocking, Your Honor.
411
00:16:48,079 --> 00:16:50,287
If I weren't married,
I'd be all over that.
412
00:16:50,581 --> 00:16:52,447
I bet he's so much better
than Harvey.
413
00:16:52,542 --> 00:16:53,828
I am. Please proceed.
414
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,122
Your Honor, paragraph five
of the nautical code
415
00:16:56,212 --> 00:16:58,579
states that a captain
shall not relinquish command
416
00:16:58,673 --> 00:17:00,005
to a party of pirates.
417
00:17:00,091 --> 00:17:02,629
If anyone here is
a pirate, it's him,
418
00:17:02,718 --> 00:17:05,051
and I am the British navy
in this situation.
419
00:17:05,137 --> 00:17:07,504
Objection! She's hijacking
my metaphor!
420
00:17:07,848 --> 00:17:10,761
Sustained. Miss Pooperson,
this is your only warning.
421
00:17:10,851 --> 00:17:12,091
He hasn't even called
a witness.
422
00:17:12,270 --> 00:17:13,306
She does have a point.
423
00:17:13,396 --> 00:17:16,514
I don't need a witness to prove
my case to this jury of my peers.
424
00:17:16,857 --> 00:17:17,938
Did he say peers?
425
00:17:18,025 --> 00:17:19,891
I know.
Can you believe this guy?
426
00:17:20,278 --> 00:17:21,394
I think we've heard enough.
427
00:17:21,487 --> 00:17:23,729
Mr. Foreman, has the jury reached
a verdict?
428
00:17:24,574 --> 00:17:25,610
We have, Your Honor.
429
00:17:25,700 --> 00:17:28,283
We find the defendant guilty
on all charges.
430
00:17:28,494 --> 00:17:29,826
As if there was any question.
431
00:17:29,912 --> 00:17:32,655
Miss Richardson, I hereby
sentence you to death.
432
00:17:33,124 --> 00:17:36,083
Death? I don't even know
what I'm on trial for!
433
00:17:36,252 --> 00:17:38,852
And that's the beauty of this whole thing.
Bailiff, take her away.
434
00:17:39,255 --> 00:17:41,372
With pleasure.
435
00:17:41,465 --> 00:17:42,876
- Well done.
- Well done.
436
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,256
For the record,
437
00:17:51,350 --> 00:17:53,592
I meant what I said
about him being better than Harvey.
438
00:17:53,936 --> 00:17:56,804
So true, so true.
439
00:17:58,357 --> 00:18:00,144
So true, so true.
440
00:18:04,322 --> 00:18:06,234
There were really 12 Harveys?
441
00:18:06,407 --> 00:18:08,490
I know, right?
It was fantastic.
442
00:18:09,285 --> 00:18:11,823
Maybe Sheila's right.
Maybe I should say yes.
443
00:18:12,496 --> 00:18:14,896
I'd be in charge, and no one
would ever push me around again.
444
00:18:14,999 --> 00:18:16,160
True, but...
445
00:18:16,250 --> 00:18:17,936
Stan, a jury of Harveys
just found in my favor.
446
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,520
Don't tell me
you're gonna shit on this.
447
00:18:19,795 --> 00:18:22,082
Louis, I'm sorry,
448
00:18:22,632 --> 00:18:24,749
but I must point out
449
00:18:25,343 --> 00:18:28,086
that your dream was filled
with the people you work with.
450
00:18:28,638 --> 00:18:30,630
You are envisioning yourself
in a fantasy world
451
00:18:31,140 --> 00:18:32,881
still surrounded
by them.
452
00:18:32,975 --> 00:18:33,975
What's your point?
453
00:18:34,060 --> 00:18:36,097
My point is,
if you take the job,
454
00:18:36,437 --> 00:18:38,349
they will not be there
with you.
455
00:18:39,315 --> 00:18:40,772
Oh, God.
456
00:18:42,610 --> 00:18:44,796
This whole time, I was worried
about what they would do without me.
457
00:18:44,820 --> 00:18:46,903
I hadn't even thought
about what I'd do without them.
458
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,152
And if you do think
about that?
459
00:18:51,577 --> 00:18:52,804
I think they're
everything to me
460
00:18:52,828 --> 00:18:54,069
and I don't want
to go anywhere.
461
00:18:58,751 --> 00:19:00,788
Donna, good,
I was hoping you were in,
462
00:19:00,878 --> 00:19:02,164
because I need
a little help.
463
00:19:02,254 --> 00:19:03,745
Sure, Faye, with what?
464
00:19:03,839 --> 00:19:06,039
You want me to tell Alex Williams
he's an associate now?
465
00:19:06,425 --> 00:19:08,963
I take it you don't like
my decision regarding Louis.
466
00:19:09,053 --> 00:19:12,171
Dislike is one of the ways of describing
my feelings for you, Faye.
467
00:19:12,264 --> 00:19:13,450
I doubt you want
to hear the other.
468
00:19:13,474 --> 00:19:14,474
Then I'll get to it.
469
00:19:14,558 --> 00:19:17,096
Whether you like it or not,
I am acting managing partner now,
470
00:19:17,186 --> 00:19:19,678
which means I have a full plate
and no help with it.
471
00:19:20,898 --> 00:19:22,230
I need a secretary.
472
00:19:25,569 --> 00:19:26,855
You want me
to be your secretary?
473
00:19:26,946 --> 00:19:29,154
I need you to help me
get through the next few days,
474
00:19:29,323 --> 00:19:30,905
and according
to everyone,
475
00:19:30,991 --> 00:19:33,358
you were the best secretary
this firm ever had.
476
00:19:33,536 --> 00:19:35,869
I was the best secretary
any firm ever had,
477
00:19:35,955 --> 00:19:37,947
which is one of the reasons
I am now COO.
478
00:19:38,290 --> 00:19:40,748
Donna, I know you think
this is below your pay grade...
479
00:19:40,835 --> 00:19:42,121
It is below my pay grade.
480
00:19:42,336 --> 00:19:43,814
But more importantly,
it sends a message
481
00:19:43,838 --> 00:19:45,625
that I am more valuable
as your lackey
482
00:19:45,715 --> 00:19:46,876
than in my real position.
483
00:19:46,966 --> 00:19:49,208
And I've had it with people
talking about messages
484
00:19:49,301 --> 00:19:51,793
when the only message
I keep getting is, "Go to hell."
485
00:19:51,971 --> 00:19:54,679
So if you're as loyal to this firm
as you say you are,
486
00:19:54,765 --> 00:19:56,381
then accept I need you
to do this.
487
00:19:56,892 --> 00:19:58,053
And if I don't?
488
00:19:59,019 --> 00:20:00,931
Are you gonna demote me
like you did to Louis?
489
00:20:01,021 --> 00:20:04,890
Louis used his position
to coerce borderline illegal behavior.
490
00:20:04,984 --> 00:20:07,271
I'm asking you
to manage some files.
491
00:20:07,361 --> 00:20:09,353
I could demote
if you refuse,
492
00:20:09,572 --> 00:20:11,154
but does it really need
to come to that?
493
00:20:12,324 --> 00:20:14,737
You'll have your files taken care of
by the end of the day.
494
00:20:15,786 --> 00:20:17,118
Thank you.
495
00:20:27,882 --> 00:20:29,794
Hey. Can I come in?
496
00:20:30,342 --> 00:20:32,422
If I say no, you gonna say
it's because I'm a coward?
497
00:20:33,220 --> 00:20:34,256
Alex...
498
00:20:35,890 --> 00:20:37,051
I am so sorry.
499
00:20:37,683 --> 00:20:39,219
I should not have said
what I said.
500
00:20:39,852 --> 00:20:41,434
I know it's not
an excuse,
501
00:20:41,729 --> 00:20:44,642
but I've just really been
off-kilter since Robert left.
502
00:20:45,399 --> 00:20:47,482
It might not be
an excuse,
503
00:20:47,568 --> 00:20:48,979
but it's an explanation.
504
00:20:49,862 --> 00:20:51,854
And I hope
I'm not overstepping,
505
00:20:51,989 --> 00:20:54,106
but I think I know
what you need right now.
506
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,200
What do you mean?
507
00:20:55,284 --> 00:20:57,644
When things aren't going well
for me in one part of my life,
508
00:20:57,787 --> 00:20:59,073
I try to look to another.
509
00:20:59,163 --> 00:21:01,496
Usually that other part
is family.
510
00:21:02,958 --> 00:21:04,415
Are you trying to adopt me?
511
00:21:04,502 --> 00:21:06,209
Let's take it
one step at a time.
512
00:21:06,962 --> 00:21:09,065
Why don't you come over to the house
for dinner tonight?
513
00:21:09,089 --> 00:21:11,172
It may not be the answer
to your problems, but...
514
00:21:11,383 --> 00:21:14,547
Rosalie's been asking about you.
Joy loves you.
515
00:21:14,637 --> 00:21:16,424
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
516
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,512
I think it'll be fun
for you.
517
00:21:19,099 --> 00:21:21,259
Though if it goes anything
like our lunch with Rosalie,
518
00:21:21,310 --> 00:21:23,302
it sure as shit
won't be fun for me.
519
00:21:24,688 --> 00:21:26,395
You know what I meant.
520
00:21:26,649 --> 00:21:27,730
I did.
521
00:21:28,609 --> 00:21:30,100
You in?
522
00:21:31,904 --> 00:21:34,567
I'd love to.
Thank you, Alex.
523
00:21:42,498 --> 00:21:44,615
Dan, hey. Did you see the...
524
00:21:44,708 --> 00:21:46,228
What the hell
have you been doing?
525
00:21:46,627 --> 00:21:47,663
What we said I'd do...
526
00:21:47,753 --> 00:21:48,960
Suing them is one thing,
527
00:21:49,046 --> 00:21:51,038
but you took out
a full-page ad
528
00:21:51,131 --> 00:21:52,372
saying that
they're endangering
529
00:21:52,466 --> 00:21:54,082
the entire future
of the company.
530
00:21:54,343 --> 00:21:56,005
Dan, you said you'd stick
with the plan,
531
00:21:56,303 --> 00:21:58,215
and if a thing like this
is gonna rattle you...
532
00:21:58,305 --> 00:21:59,421
It didn't rattle me.
533
00:21:59,515 --> 00:22:01,451
It rattled them, and it's gonna be
a little difficult
534
00:22:01,475 --> 00:22:03,262
to stick it out
when I've been fired.
535
00:22:03,352 --> 00:22:05,163
What? They can't do that
in the middle of litigation.
536
00:22:05,187 --> 00:22:06,223
Well, they did.
537
00:22:06,397 --> 00:22:08,980
And even if I win this thing,
I won't get my company back.
538
00:22:09,149 --> 00:22:10,811
Listen to me.
It's not over.
539
00:22:10,901 --> 00:22:12,358
- I can fix it.
- Then fix it,
540
00:22:12,444 --> 00:22:14,276
because if I lose everything
from all this,
541
00:22:14,363 --> 00:22:17,106
instead of suing the board,
I'll be suing you.
542
00:22:22,037 --> 00:22:23,598
- You're not gonna believe this shit.
- Harvey...
543
00:22:23,622 --> 00:22:25,454
I just got a call
from Dan Foley.
544
00:22:25,541 --> 00:22:27,908
They fired him, and now
he's threatening to sue me.
545
00:22:28,127 --> 00:22:30,146
And I'm sorry about that,
but right now, I don't have time.
546
00:22:30,170 --> 00:22:31,648
Donna, I just told you
I almost got sued...
547
00:22:31,672 --> 00:22:32,879
But you didn't get sued,
548
00:22:32,965 --> 00:22:34,651
and you aren't the only one
sick of that woman.
549
00:22:34,675 --> 00:22:35,675
What?
550
00:22:35,759 --> 00:22:37,639
She had the nerve to ask me
to be her secretary,
551
00:22:37,845 --> 00:22:39,757
so I'm sorry that your case
isn't going well,
552
00:22:39,847 --> 00:22:41,804
but right now, I don't...
Where are you going?
553
00:22:41,891 --> 00:22:43,869
I'm gonna go to that woman
and tell her she can do her own work.
554
00:22:43,893 --> 00:22:44,893
You're not her servant.
555
00:22:44,977 --> 00:22:47,435
Harvey, I don't need you
to fight my battles for me.
556
00:22:47,521 --> 00:22:48,602
And yesterday you said
557
00:22:48,689 --> 00:22:50,689
we shouldn't let
what happens here come between us.
558
00:22:50,733 --> 00:22:51,974
Well, it's coming
between us,
559
00:22:52,067 --> 00:22:53,353
and I'm gonna put
a stop to it.
560
00:22:53,444 --> 00:22:54,730
You're right.
I did say that.
561
00:22:55,529 --> 00:22:58,237
But the way to keep Faye from coming
between us isn't fighting her.
562
00:22:58,324 --> 00:22:59,690
It's using your idea.
563
00:22:59,783 --> 00:23:00,844
What are you talking about?
564
00:23:00,868 --> 00:23:02,304
We're gonna go out
for an early dinner,
565
00:23:02,328 --> 00:23:03,680
and we're gonna talk
about anything
566
00:23:03,704 --> 00:23:05,115
but this place
and that woman.
567
00:23:05,205 --> 00:23:06,912
Donna, my client
just got fired.
568
00:23:06,999 --> 00:23:09,241
And he's still gonna
be fired in three hours,
569
00:23:09,335 --> 00:23:11,042
but if I know you,
if you clear your head,
570
00:23:11,128 --> 00:23:12,744
he might not be fired
in four.
571
00:23:13,797 --> 00:23:14,958
So what do you say?
572
00:23:15,382 --> 00:23:17,214
I say I'm in the mood
for Italian.
573
00:23:19,261 --> 00:23:20,627
Absolutely, thank you.
574
00:23:22,848 --> 00:23:24,885
Katrina, you wanted
to see me?
575
00:23:25,017 --> 00:23:26,599
I didn't just want
to see you, Susan.
576
00:23:27,353 --> 00:23:29,436
I want to know why
you willfully disregarded me
577
00:23:29,521 --> 00:23:31,228
by contacting
your family friend.
578
00:23:31,315 --> 00:23:32,459
Okay, I know you
asked me not to, but...
579
00:23:32,483 --> 00:23:35,021
No, Susan,
I told you not to.
580
00:23:35,653 --> 00:23:37,440
Because not only
is it unprofessional,
581
00:23:37,529 --> 00:23:39,521
it's as much as telling them
they have us.
582
00:23:39,782 --> 00:23:42,650
I'm sorry. I was only trying
to help us win.
583
00:23:42,743 --> 00:23:44,530
No, you were trying
to help yourself,
584
00:23:44,954 --> 00:23:47,321
and that is the last thing
I need in an associate.
585
00:23:47,957 --> 00:23:49,243
You're off this case.
586
00:23:54,755 --> 00:23:56,212
I think you should reconsider.
587
00:23:57,758 --> 00:23:59,090
And why would I ever do that?
588
00:24:00,344 --> 00:24:01,784
Because I know
why Brian really left.
589
00:24:03,222 --> 00:24:04,554
What did you
just say to me?
590
00:24:04,682 --> 00:24:06,799
I said a senior partner
and a married associate
591
00:24:06,892 --> 00:24:09,600
were working closely together,
working nights together,
592
00:24:10,145 --> 00:24:13,013
until suddenly he up and left
with no explanation,
593
00:24:13,107 --> 00:24:14,518
no job lined up...
594
00:24:14,650 --> 00:24:17,063
Susan, you do not want
to do this.
595
00:24:17,152 --> 00:24:18,268
Do what?
596
00:24:18,362 --> 00:24:20,465
Point out that things went too far
and you bought his silence
597
00:24:20,489 --> 00:24:21,946
by giving him
one of your clients?
598
00:24:22,700 --> 00:24:24,066
Brian Altman left
599
00:24:24,159 --> 00:24:26,617
because he decided
it was best for his family.
600
00:24:27,121 --> 00:24:28,453
Yeah, I bet he did.
601
00:24:29,707 --> 00:24:31,164
Well, unless you want
Faye Richardson
602
00:24:31,250 --> 00:24:33,162
to suddenly be made aware
of the situation,
603
00:24:33,877 --> 00:24:36,369
you'll make me your associate
by the end of the week.
604
00:24:43,429 --> 00:24:44,965
Donna, there you are.
605
00:24:45,055 --> 00:24:47,012
No, Gretchen,
there I go,
606
00:24:47,099 --> 00:24:48,340
because I'm just
on my way out.
607
00:24:48,892 --> 00:24:50,975
Well, you might want to stop
by Faye's office first.
608
00:24:51,061 --> 00:24:52,472
She's looking for you.
609
00:24:53,605 --> 00:24:54,937
Listen,
610
00:24:55,024 --> 00:24:57,107
do me a favor and don't tell her
you ran into me.
611
00:24:57,276 --> 00:24:58,517
What's going on, Red?
612
00:24:59,486 --> 00:25:01,406
She asked me to do
some secretarial work for her,
613
00:25:01,447 --> 00:25:03,029
and I didn't finish it.
614
00:25:03,115 --> 00:25:04,676
But I have a dinner
at Quattro Gatti tonight,
615
00:25:04,700 --> 00:25:06,066
and I absolutely
cannot move it.
616
00:25:06,243 --> 00:25:08,451
Which means you need someone
to run interference
617
00:25:08,537 --> 00:25:11,325
while you and Harvey
get your smush face on.
618
00:25:12,124 --> 00:25:13,410
That's right. I said it.
619
00:25:13,751 --> 00:25:16,414
Wait. You know
about me and Harvey?
620
00:25:16,503 --> 00:25:19,246
Please, you think Louis
can keep his mouth shut?
621
00:25:19,339 --> 00:25:20,955
I asked him
what he wanted for lunch,
622
00:25:21,050 --> 00:25:22,336
and he blurted out,
623
00:25:22,468 --> 00:25:24,050
"Harvey and Donna did it!"
624
00:25:24,219 --> 00:25:25,505
Did he really do that?
625
00:25:25,596 --> 00:25:26,757
Might as well have.
626
00:25:29,016 --> 00:25:31,383
I'm happy for you, darling.
So you go on out to dinner.
627
00:25:31,477 --> 00:25:33,685
I'll take care of whatever
Miss High and Mighty needs.
628
00:25:33,771 --> 00:25:36,184
No, Gretchen, I couldn't ask you
to do that for me.
629
00:25:36,273 --> 00:25:37,764
You're not asking.
I'm telling.
630
00:25:38,442 --> 00:25:40,980
Don't worry.
I'll be so good to that woman,
631
00:25:41,070 --> 00:25:43,403
she won't even think
to ask where you are.
632
00:25:44,239 --> 00:25:45,571
Thank you, Gretchen.
633
00:25:46,700 --> 00:25:48,066
I owe you one.
634
00:25:55,250 --> 00:25:58,709
Hey, you. Girl with coffee.
Any idea where Gretchen is?
635
00:25:58,879 --> 00:26:00,040
I'm sorry, I don't.
636
00:26:00,130 --> 00:26:02,358
Well, if you see her, tell her
I've been looking all over for her.
637
00:26:02,382 --> 00:26:03,902
- I know where she is, Louis.
- Jesus Christ.
638
00:26:03,926 --> 00:26:05,646
In fact, I've been looking
all over for you.
639
00:26:05,803 --> 00:26:07,795
She's working for me
on a temporary basis.
640
00:26:07,888 --> 00:26:09,129
I'm sorry.
Say that again,
641
00:26:09,223 --> 00:26:10,784
because my ears are
a little clogged with rage.
642
00:26:10,808 --> 00:26:13,050
She did some work for me.
It was excellent...
643
00:26:13,143 --> 00:26:15,538
Well, then clone her,
because you're not taking my secretary.
644
00:26:15,562 --> 00:26:17,599
I didn't want
your secretary, Louis.
645
00:26:17,689 --> 00:26:19,225
I asked Donna
to handle my work,
646
00:26:19,525 --> 00:26:21,938
but she pawned it off on Gretchen,
and here we are.
647
00:26:22,027 --> 00:26:24,308
I don't care what Donna did.
You have no right to do this.
648
00:26:24,363 --> 00:26:26,855
Louis, if you just calm down,
I assure you,
649
00:26:26,949 --> 00:26:29,282
once I get up and running,
you can have her back.
650
00:26:29,368 --> 00:26:30,950
And if I don't calm down?
651
00:26:31,578 --> 00:26:34,491
You know, I hear that a lot,
"And if I don't?"
652
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,906
Well, not everything's
a threat, Louis.
653
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,662
But if you insist
on making it one,
654
00:26:38,752 --> 00:26:41,119
I promise you'll find
what you're looking for.
655
00:26:47,678 --> 00:26:48,885
Oh, isn't this nice?
656
00:26:49,888 --> 00:26:51,049
Where the hell is Donna?
657
00:26:51,140 --> 00:26:53,382
Calm down, Louis.
I'm not gonna be here forever.
658
00:26:53,475 --> 00:26:55,057
You are not gonna be
here at all,
659
00:26:55,144 --> 00:26:56,913
because it doesn't take
a genius to figure out
660
00:26:56,937 --> 00:26:58,081
that she went
for a tryst with Harvey.
661
00:26:58,105 --> 00:26:59,391
You got stuck
holding the ball,
662
00:26:59,481 --> 00:27:01,042
and I'm getting her
back in here right now.
663
00:27:01,066 --> 00:27:03,183
It wasn't a tryst,
and I didn't get stuck.
664
00:27:03,569 --> 00:27:04,650
I volunteered.
665
00:27:04,736 --> 00:27:05,880
Why the hell
would you do that?
666
00:27:05,904 --> 00:27:07,465
'Cause they're starting
a new relationship.
667
00:27:07,489 --> 00:27:10,277
And if you cared about them at all,
you'd leave them alone.
668
00:27:10,367 --> 00:27:12,554
Are you telling me they couldn't pick up
the phone when I called?
669
00:27:12,578 --> 00:27:14,444
They probably
didn't even see the call.
670
00:27:14,621 --> 00:27:15,737
They're out together.
671
00:27:16,165 --> 00:27:17,406
Can't you understand that?
672
00:27:17,541 --> 00:27:18,577
Gretchen...
673
00:27:18,667 --> 00:27:21,501
I have endured more humiliation
in the last week
674
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,502
than I ever thought
was possible.
675
00:27:24,339 --> 00:27:25,671
Donna specifically told me
676
00:27:25,757 --> 00:27:27,485
that she would not let her
relationship with Harvey
677
00:27:27,509 --> 00:27:29,421
get in the way
if I needed support.
678
00:27:29,511 --> 00:27:30,797
On a scale from one to 10,
679
00:27:30,888 --> 00:27:32,699
how much support do you think
I need right now?
680
00:27:32,723 --> 00:27:36,137
Okay, Louis, I'm gonna
tell you where they are,
681
00:27:36,226 --> 00:27:38,138
but I think you should
let it go till tomorrow.
682
00:27:40,981 --> 00:27:43,894
The thing that really sets me off
is her holier-than-thou act.
683
00:27:43,984 --> 00:27:45,600
I mean, nobody
is that goody two-shoes.
684
00:27:45,694 --> 00:27:46,855
Yeah, well,
what if she is?
685
00:27:47,029 --> 00:27:49,112
And what if Bill Buckner
would've fielded that ball?
686
00:27:50,032 --> 00:27:51,614
Okay, I don't know
who that is,
687
00:27:51,700 --> 00:27:53,316
but it is time
we changed the subject,
688
00:27:53,410 --> 00:27:54,821
because we said
no work talk,
689
00:27:54,912 --> 00:27:57,223
and we just spent half a bottle
of wine on Faye Richardson.
690
00:27:57,247 --> 00:27:58,328
You're right.
691
00:27:58,457 --> 00:28:00,457
- Let's talk about something else.
- Anything else.
692
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,171
- Water's pretty good.
- Yeah.
693
00:28:15,265 --> 00:28:17,302
It's wet. It's very wet.
694
00:28:21,855 --> 00:28:24,222
So, have you read
any good books lately?
695
00:28:25,192 --> 00:28:26,683
Books?
696
00:28:26,777 --> 00:28:28,564
That's the best you've got?
Water and books?
697
00:28:28,654 --> 00:28:30,691
Hey, I don't see you
holding up your end.
698
00:28:30,864 --> 00:28:32,446
"Water is wet"?
Who says that?
699
00:28:32,532 --> 00:28:33,693
I know! I got flustered!
700
00:28:34,952 --> 00:28:36,568
And I mean, who wouldn't?
701
00:28:36,703 --> 00:28:38,285
We have spent
almost every minute
702
00:28:38,372 --> 00:28:40,409
of every day together
for the last 15 years,
703
00:28:40,499 --> 00:28:43,037
and now we can't think of a single thing
to say to each other.
704
00:28:43,126 --> 00:28:44,126
What if that's it?
705
00:28:44,753 --> 00:28:47,245
What if we're all out of things
to say to each other?
706
00:28:47,381 --> 00:28:49,373
That's what you say
to me when I'm worried
707
00:28:49,466 --> 00:28:50,752
that we have nothing
to say?
708
00:28:50,884 --> 00:28:52,362
- What is wrong with you?
- Oh, my God.
709
00:28:52,386 --> 00:28:53,386
What?
710
00:28:53,470 --> 00:28:55,230
You just reminded me
of Ricky Garfield's mom.
711
00:28:55,931 --> 00:28:57,843
He was new in town.
I was 16 years old.
712
00:28:57,933 --> 00:29:01,176
I went over to his house,
and there she was, beautiful redhead.
713
00:29:01,687 --> 00:29:03,804
Had a crush on her
from the second I saw her.
714
00:29:04,648 --> 00:29:07,015
Just realized you've always
reminded me of her.
715
00:29:09,444 --> 00:29:10,444
What?
716
00:29:11,029 --> 00:29:14,773
It's just nice to know that there are
still things I get to find out about you.
717
00:29:15,575 --> 00:29:16,782
I like that.
718
00:29:17,202 --> 00:29:19,990
Now how about you tell me something
I don't know about you?
719
00:29:24,084 --> 00:29:26,542
Alex, thank you
for inviting me to your home.
720
00:29:26,628 --> 00:29:28,085
This is exactly
what I needed.
721
00:29:28,255 --> 00:29:30,998
Well, I sure as hell couldn't
take you bowling like I did with Louis.
722
00:29:31,091 --> 00:29:33,583
You took Louis bowling?
How did that go?
723
00:29:33,677 --> 00:29:34,677
You'd be surprised.
724
00:29:34,803 --> 00:29:35,863
He actually bowled
a perfect game.
725
00:29:35,887 --> 00:29:37,344
- Get out.
- I shit you not.
726
00:29:37,681 --> 00:29:39,521
All I had to do was help him tap
into his rage.
727
00:29:39,558 --> 00:29:40,558
I can see that.
728
00:29:40,642 --> 00:29:42,383
A few months ago,
we confronted his mugger.
729
00:29:42,477 --> 00:29:43,888
He turned
into a wild animal.
730
00:29:43,979 --> 00:29:45,595
Whoa, look who decided
to show up!
731
00:29:45,689 --> 00:29:48,272
And perfect timing.
I've got Chinese.
732
00:29:48,442 --> 00:29:49,877
Samantha, you can have
Debbie's seat.
733
00:29:49,901 --> 00:29:50,937
She's got tap tonight.
734
00:29:51,028 --> 00:29:52,269
Oh, I'm sorry
to hear that.
735
00:29:52,362 --> 00:29:53,464
I was looking forward
to meeting her,
736
00:29:53,488 --> 00:29:54,924
because if she's half
as cool as her sister...
737
00:29:54,948 --> 00:29:55,948
She's not.
738
00:29:56,033 --> 00:29:57,393
Nothing like the love
of a sibling.
739
00:29:57,492 --> 00:30:00,326
Hey, babe, I saw your bumper.
740
00:30:00,412 --> 00:30:01,764
Did you want me to take your car
in tomorrow?
741
00:30:01,788 --> 00:30:03,074
What are you
talking about?
742
00:30:03,540 --> 00:30:05,406
Have you not seen
the back of your car?
743
00:30:05,500 --> 00:30:07,537
Looks like you hit
a yellow water buffalo.
744
00:30:07,627 --> 00:30:08,834
Well, that's interesting,
745
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,253
because the last person
to drive the car was Joy.
746
00:30:12,049 --> 00:30:14,336
Don't look at me.
Maybe somebody backed into you.
747
00:30:14,426 --> 00:30:15,758
Joy, what happened?
748
00:30:16,762 --> 00:30:19,721
Fine, I hit a pole in the parking garage.
It's not a big deal.
749
00:30:19,806 --> 00:30:20,922
The big deal is that
750
00:30:21,016 --> 00:30:22,552
you were hoping
we wouldn't notice
751
00:30:22,642 --> 00:30:24,178
until long after
you'd driven the car.
752
00:30:24,519 --> 00:30:27,136
I wasn't thinking that.
I just didn't want you to be mad at me.
753
00:30:27,230 --> 00:30:29,222
And we wouldn't have been,
but we are now.
754
00:30:29,316 --> 00:30:31,308
You have two choices.
You either pay for it,
755
00:30:31,401 --> 00:30:33,438
or you're not driving
anywhere for a month.
756
00:30:33,528 --> 00:30:35,611
- What... That's so unfair!
- Fair or not,
757
00:30:35,697 --> 00:30:36,817
that's the way
it's gonna be.
758
00:30:37,157 --> 00:30:38,898
Now, let's all sit down
759
00:30:39,326 --> 00:30:41,283
and try to still have
a pleasant evening.
760
00:30:45,999 --> 00:30:47,706
I'm just saying,
it's not unusual
761
00:30:47,793 --> 00:30:50,410
for a person to think that
after they've had one.
762
00:30:50,629 --> 00:30:53,622
You thought you'd been poisoned
by a peppercorn?
763
00:30:54,007 --> 00:30:57,375
A Szechuan peppercorn,
and I didn't think that it poisoned me.
764
00:30:57,469 --> 00:30:59,085
I thought someone
had poisoned me.
765
00:30:59,596 --> 00:31:00,803
Haven't you ever had one?
766
00:31:00,889 --> 00:31:02,825
The pertinent question
isn't whether I've had them.
767
00:31:02,849 --> 00:31:05,387
It's, what did you do
to deserve getting poisoned?
768
00:31:05,477 --> 00:31:06,934
Well, that is
neither here nor there.
769
00:31:07,020 --> 00:31:08,556
I knew it.
You're a black widow.
770
00:31:08,814 --> 00:31:09,916
Harvey, if I was
a black widow,
771
00:31:09,940 --> 00:31:11,300
I'd be the one doing
the poisoning.
772
00:31:11,358 --> 00:31:13,224
You seem to know too much
about this subject.
773
00:31:13,527 --> 00:31:14,608
I'm breaking up with you.
774
00:31:14,694 --> 00:31:17,357
Good, I really think this whole thing
has run its course.
775
00:31:18,824 --> 00:31:20,156
Holy shit.
776
00:31:20,659 --> 00:31:22,241
Clearing my head
really did help.
777
00:31:22,702 --> 00:31:24,364
I think I know
why they fired Dan.
778
00:31:25,414 --> 00:31:27,058
And I think I know
what I'm gonna do about it.
779
00:31:27,082 --> 00:31:28,448
Then let's go do it.
780
00:31:28,542 --> 00:31:30,625
No. Not until tomorrow.
781
00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:32,042
Tonight is for us.
782
00:31:32,963 --> 00:31:34,357
You know, I think
you might be getting
783
00:31:34,381 --> 00:31:35,838
the hang of this
whole dinner thing.
784
00:31:36,675 --> 00:31:38,132
Telling me old stories,
785
00:31:39,469 --> 00:31:40,926
making me feel...
786
00:31:43,473 --> 00:31:46,841
Oh, shoot, it's Louis.
Maybe I should get it.
787
00:31:46,935 --> 00:31:49,143
Donna, the whole point
of tonight was just us.
788
00:31:49,229 --> 00:31:51,095
I know, but after
the whole Faye thing,
789
00:31:51,189 --> 00:31:53,309
I promised that we'd be there
for him if he needed us.
790
00:31:53,358 --> 00:31:55,350
If there's an emergency,
he'll leave a voice mail.
791
00:31:55,444 --> 00:31:56,855
You can call him right back.
792
00:32:01,533 --> 00:32:03,570
Good. Now, we are gonna
pay the check,
793
00:32:03,660 --> 00:32:05,847
and then I'm gonna go home
and I'm gonna be young Harvey,
794
00:32:05,871 --> 00:32:07,863
and you are gonna be
Ricky Garfield's mom.
795
00:32:22,345 --> 00:32:23,461
You're in early.
796
00:32:23,555 --> 00:32:25,763
I usually am.
What can I do for you?
797
00:32:27,142 --> 00:32:29,725
I had dinner last night
with Alex and his family,
798
00:32:29,811 --> 00:32:32,144
and it reminded me that
the closest thing I have to family
799
00:32:32,230 --> 00:32:33,892
are the people
at this firm.
800
00:32:34,316 --> 00:32:37,605
I never thanked you for standing up
to me with Lucas, so,
801
00:32:38,945 --> 00:32:40,436
thank you.
802
00:32:42,324 --> 00:32:44,031
Speaking of standing up,
803
00:32:44,117 --> 00:32:46,325
I stood up to you
more than once.
804
00:32:46,411 --> 00:32:49,154
How did you know when to give
in to me and when not to?
805
00:32:49,498 --> 00:32:51,535
Every time
you stood up to me,
806
00:32:51,625 --> 00:32:52,911
I backed down
807
00:32:53,168 --> 00:32:54,830
because you were
in the right.
808
00:32:55,086 --> 00:32:57,749
So I guess the question is,
are you in the right?
809
00:32:58,173 --> 00:32:59,584
I am in the right.
810
00:33:00,091 --> 00:33:02,458
The problem is,
the person standing up to me
811
00:33:03,136 --> 00:33:04,923
has information
I don't want coming out.
812
00:33:06,056 --> 00:33:08,969
Well, I can't tell you
the answer, Katrina,
813
00:33:09,059 --> 00:33:11,016
but I can tell you,
whoever it is,
814
00:33:11,102 --> 00:33:13,685
if you give them an inch,
they will take a mile.
815
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:19,692
You fired him,
didn't you?
816
00:33:20,111 --> 00:33:21,111
What?
817
00:33:21,196 --> 00:33:24,530
You ran Johnson and Powell
when Dan Foley's contract was written.
818
00:33:24,908 --> 00:33:26,469
You knew there was a clause
that allowed them
819
00:33:26,493 --> 00:33:28,721
to fire him during litigation,
and you had them pull the trigger.
820
00:33:28,745 --> 00:33:29,826
Are you out of your mind?
821
00:33:29,913 --> 00:33:32,266
Are you gonna tell me you didn't have
a conversation with them about me?
822
00:33:32,290 --> 00:33:33,451
Excuse me?
823
00:33:33,625 --> 00:33:35,867
Right there.
A 15-minute call
824
00:33:35,961 --> 00:33:37,327
with you and Johnson
and Powell
825
00:33:37,420 --> 00:33:39,252
not two hours
after you and I spoke.
826
00:33:39,339 --> 00:33:40,796
You dug into
my phone records?
827
00:33:40,882 --> 00:33:43,420
Answer my question,
or we'll do it in a deposition.
828
00:33:43,635 --> 00:33:45,092
Did you talk to them
about me?
829
00:33:45,262 --> 00:33:46,753
I have a subpoena
right here,
830
00:33:46,846 --> 00:33:48,678
and, Faye,
it isn't gonna look good
831
00:33:48,765 --> 00:33:50,631
having an ethics expert
lie under oath.
832
00:33:51,476 --> 00:33:53,638
Okay. You're right.
You got to me.
833
00:33:54,187 --> 00:33:55,723
You pissed me off so much,
834
00:33:55,814 --> 00:33:57,521
I was rooting
for you to lose,
835
00:33:57,607 --> 00:34:00,270
but unlike you,
I wouldn't act on that.
836
00:34:00,485 --> 00:34:01,963
Then how do you
explain the phone call?
837
00:34:01,987 --> 00:34:04,274
Easily. I didn't call them.
They called me.
838
00:34:04,489 --> 00:34:07,823
And the reason they did was to say
what an asshole you were.
839
00:34:08,159 --> 00:34:09,821
It was a 15-minute
phone call.
840
00:34:09,911 --> 00:34:11,493
They had plenty
to say on the matter,
841
00:34:11,580 --> 00:34:13,287
but what they didn't do
is ask for my help,
842
00:34:13,373 --> 00:34:14,784
because if they had,
843
00:34:14,958 --> 00:34:17,541
my next call would've been
to the New York Bar.
844
00:34:17,627 --> 00:34:19,289
Bullshit.
845
00:34:21,339 --> 00:34:24,582
Then subpoena me. I'll be happy
to say all that under oath.
846
00:34:24,801 --> 00:34:25,917
And while you're at it,
847
00:34:26,011 --> 00:34:28,628
subpoena Johnson and Powell.
They'll say the same thing.
848
00:34:28,722 --> 00:34:30,429
And then
maybe you'll realize
849
00:34:30,515 --> 00:34:33,007
all you accomplished
by taking this case
850
00:34:33,101 --> 00:34:36,014
was getting Dan Foley fired.
851
00:34:43,153 --> 00:34:44,815
Susan, do you mind
coming with me?
852
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,693
I take it you thought
about what we discussed?
853
00:34:48,158 --> 00:34:49,194
I did.
854
00:34:49,284 --> 00:34:52,197
And if you're going to be my associate,
you'll need an office.
855
00:34:52,287 --> 00:34:53,823
We just need
to get it approved.
856
00:35:02,589 --> 00:35:04,581
Katrina,
I've had a bit of a long morning,
857
00:35:04,716 --> 00:35:06,958
- so whatever it is...
- This'll just take a minute.
858
00:35:07,052 --> 00:35:09,044
I know you run
a tight ethical ship,
859
00:35:09,179 --> 00:35:12,343
and Susan has something she would like
to bring to your attention.
860
00:35:12,724 --> 00:35:14,056
I'm listening.
861
00:35:15,685 --> 00:35:18,143
Susan's too modest to toot
her own horn, so I will.
862
00:35:18,605 --> 00:35:20,813
We were working
on the VersaLife case together
863
00:35:20,899 --> 00:35:23,016
when Susan made
a mistake.
864
00:35:23,443 --> 00:35:25,713
That doesn't sound like something
to toot your horn about.
865
00:35:25,737 --> 00:35:26,937
It wasn't the mistake.
866
00:35:26,988 --> 00:35:28,195
It's what she
did afterwards.
867
00:35:28,365 --> 00:35:31,324
Susan came to me and owned up
to what she did.
868
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:33,401
Is this true?
869
00:35:35,288 --> 00:35:36,495
Yes, it is.
870
00:35:36,623 --> 00:35:39,741
Then it's nice to know the culture
here hasn't corrupted everyone.
871
00:35:41,044 --> 00:35:42,706
Was there something else?
872
00:35:43,171 --> 00:35:44,171
Susan?
873
00:35:46,174 --> 00:35:47,415
No, nothing else.
874
00:35:48,134 --> 00:35:49,500
Then keep up the good work.
875
00:36:00,271 --> 00:36:02,479
Louis, whatever it is,
now is not a great time.
876
00:36:02,565 --> 00:36:04,682
Oh, I'm sure it's not.
Never seems to be anymore.
877
00:36:04,859 --> 00:36:06,504
I just thought you should be
the first to know.
878
00:36:06,528 --> 00:36:07,528
Know what?
879
00:36:07,696 --> 00:36:08,777
I'm leaving.
880
00:36:08,863 --> 00:36:10,070
To take a judgeship.
881
00:36:12,909 --> 00:36:14,650
Now? You're leaving now?
882
00:36:14,744 --> 00:36:15,805
I know it's not
great timing, but...
883
00:36:15,829 --> 00:36:18,071
Are you kidding me?
How could you do this to us?
884
00:36:18,498 --> 00:36:19,909
We're in the middle
of a war!
885
00:36:19,999 --> 00:36:23,413
A war that has cost me
my title and my dignity.
886
00:36:23,503 --> 00:36:25,665
And I keep waiting for the shoes
to finish dropping,
887
00:36:25,922 --> 00:36:27,208
but they keep raining down.
888
00:36:27,298 --> 00:36:29,290
Well, then let it rain!
You can fight this.
889
00:36:29,384 --> 00:36:31,000
Don't you get it?
I'm not you.
890
00:36:31,386 --> 00:36:32,613
I'm not the guy
it works out for.
891
00:36:32,637 --> 00:36:33,798
You don't need to be me.
892
00:36:33,888 --> 00:36:34,888
No, I don't,
893
00:36:34,973 --> 00:36:37,886
but I don't even have you
in my goddamn corner anymore.
894
00:36:37,976 --> 00:36:39,036
- Louis...
- Okay, you know what? Fine!
895
00:36:39,060 --> 00:36:40,301
You want the truth?
896
00:36:41,062 --> 00:36:44,100
I can take every last humiliation
that woman can dish out,
897
00:36:44,190 --> 00:36:45,501
but the one thing
that I can't take
898
00:36:45,525 --> 00:36:47,437
is you and Donna
laughing at me.
899
00:36:47,569 --> 00:36:49,435
- What are you talking about?
- I saw you.
900
00:36:50,029 --> 00:36:51,469
I went to your restaurant
last night.
901
00:36:51,531 --> 00:36:52,817
I saw you see
it was me calling,
902
00:36:52,907 --> 00:36:55,365
you sent it to voice mail,
and you started laughing.
903
00:36:56,453 --> 00:36:58,069
We weren't laughing at you.
904
00:36:58,705 --> 00:37:01,038
We agreed not
to let work intrude,
905
00:37:01,416 --> 00:37:04,284
so we didn't answer, and then I made
a joke about something else.
906
00:37:06,212 --> 00:37:07,419
Swear to me that's true.
907
00:37:07,505 --> 00:37:08,666
I swear.
908
00:37:09,424 --> 00:37:10,710
Louis...
909
00:37:11,885 --> 00:37:13,251
I'm in your corner.
910
00:37:15,305 --> 00:37:16,490
But you didn't even
come see me.
911
00:37:16,514 --> 00:37:18,176
Because I've been
fighting for you.
912
00:37:23,521 --> 00:37:26,355
I get that, Harvey,
but the truth is,
913
00:37:27,942 --> 00:37:29,433
I'd rather you'd just
come sit with me
914
00:37:29,527 --> 00:37:31,143
than go tilting
at windmills.
915
00:37:31,321 --> 00:37:33,153
Windmills? What are you
talking about?
916
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,026
It's Man of La Mancha.
Why do I even?
917
00:37:39,913 --> 00:37:41,449
I should've come
to you, Louis.
918
00:37:42,373 --> 00:37:43,739
I just didn't know
what to say,
919
00:37:43,833 --> 00:37:45,415
because I couldn't stand
920
00:37:45,710 --> 00:37:47,372
what she was doing
to my friend.
921
00:37:47,796 --> 00:37:51,289
So, you want to become
a judge, I understand.
922
00:37:51,382 --> 00:37:54,796
It's just, we've been
through so much together.
923
00:37:54,969 --> 00:37:57,837
Please, don't let me
tilting at wind chimes
924
00:37:57,931 --> 00:38:00,048
be the thing
that pulls us apart.
925
00:38:00,725 --> 00:38:02,011
It's windmills.
926
00:38:03,019 --> 00:38:04,681
Windmills, whatever.
927
00:38:12,862 --> 00:38:14,649
I was wondering
when you'd show up.
928
00:38:16,533 --> 00:38:19,276
How did you know I wouldn't tell
Faye about you and Brian?
929
00:38:20,453 --> 00:38:21,785
I didn't.
930
00:38:21,871 --> 00:38:24,158
I just knew I'd rather
you tell her than find out
931
00:38:24,249 --> 00:38:25,831
what you'd be like
in six months.
932
00:38:26,376 --> 00:38:27,787
Then why not
just turn me in?
933
00:38:29,462 --> 00:38:32,250
Because I was ambitious
when I first got here, too.
934
00:38:33,424 --> 00:38:35,711
And ambition isn't
a bad thing, Susan,
935
00:38:37,303 --> 00:38:38,760
but it can't be
all you have.
936
00:38:48,815 --> 00:38:51,102
Alex, do you have a sec?
937
00:38:51,442 --> 00:38:53,604
Yes, and before
you say anything,
938
00:38:53,695 --> 00:38:54,735
I'm sorry
about last night.
939
00:38:55,029 --> 00:38:56,361
It's not what I had
in mind.
940
00:38:56,447 --> 00:39:00,282
Actually, I came here
to thank you for it.
941
00:39:01,035 --> 00:39:04,654
Come on, Samantha. I know
my daughter. It was terrible.
942
00:39:04,747 --> 00:39:06,158
It wasn't terrible.
943
00:39:06,291 --> 00:39:09,455
It was family, and it was exactly
what I needed.
944
00:39:09,544 --> 00:39:11,501
Well,
if that's what you needed,
945
00:39:11,838 --> 00:39:13,148
you're in worse shape
than I thought.
946
00:39:13,172 --> 00:39:15,630
I decided to find out
who my biological parents are.
947
00:39:17,802 --> 00:39:18,802
What?
948
00:39:19,762 --> 00:39:21,128
I wasn't gonna tell you,
949
00:39:22,140 --> 00:39:23,381
but you're being
such a dipshit,
950
00:39:23,474 --> 00:39:24,931
I thought you should know.
951
00:39:25,685 --> 00:39:28,678
Even watching you fight
made me appreciate
952
00:39:28,855 --> 00:39:30,562
what a wonderful family
you have.
953
00:39:31,691 --> 00:39:35,480
And then I got to thinking
how Joy is so much a cross
954
00:39:35,570 --> 00:39:37,653
between you and Rosalie,
955
00:39:38,072 --> 00:39:39,904
and I thought,
956
00:39:40,742 --> 00:39:41,903
I have to know.
957
00:39:43,286 --> 00:39:44,638
So all I have to do
is be a dipshit
958
00:39:44,662 --> 00:39:46,119
and you'll show me
your soft side?
959
00:39:46,915 --> 00:39:48,156
Worked for Robert.
960
00:39:50,543 --> 00:39:52,705
Thank you for trusting me
with that, Samantha.
961
00:39:53,463 --> 00:39:54,749
It means a lot.
962
00:39:56,215 --> 00:39:57,456
It means a lot to me, too.
963
00:39:58,426 --> 00:40:00,008
Thanks for having me over.
964
00:40:05,516 --> 00:40:06,869
Yup.
965
00:40:06,893 --> 00:40:08,930
Okay, wait,
let me get this straight.
966
00:40:09,020 --> 00:40:10,727
His mankini
was your idea?
967
00:40:10,813 --> 00:40:12,708
You'd be surprised
how much a little constriction
968
00:40:12,732 --> 00:40:14,394
increases virility
in the bedroom.
969
00:40:14,651 --> 00:40:16,392
That is an unwanted fact.
970
00:40:16,819 --> 00:40:17,855
Donna.
971
00:40:19,030 --> 00:40:20,191
What are you doing here?
972
00:40:20,281 --> 00:40:23,365
She came over to say how much
she wants you to stay at the firm.
973
00:40:24,243 --> 00:40:26,860
I'll admit, at first,
I wasn't in favor...
974
00:40:26,955 --> 00:40:29,789
But then I told her that Harvey
and I would never leave you.
975
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,240
Then I guess it's a good thing
I already decided to stay.
976
00:40:34,128 --> 00:40:35,164
You did?
977
00:40:35,713 --> 00:40:36,713
I did.
978
00:40:36,923 --> 00:40:37,959
Well,
979
00:40:38,341 --> 00:40:40,402
now that I don't have to spend
the rest of my night begging,
980
00:40:40,426 --> 00:40:43,544
there really is just one thing left
for us to do.
981
00:40:46,307 --> 00:40:47,947
Are you saying
what I think you're saying?
982
00:40:48,017 --> 00:40:49,017
I am.
983
00:40:49,102 --> 00:40:50,162
Girls' night.
984
00:40:50,186 --> 00:40:52,018
Oh, my God.
It's really happening.
985
00:40:52,271 --> 00:40:53,791
- Mmm-hmm.
- Are we watching Dirty Dancing?
986
00:40:53,815 --> 00:40:54,959
Should we start
with a round of "I Never"?
987
00:40:54,983 --> 00:40:56,849
Doesn't matter to me.
Just choose fast.
988
00:40:56,943 --> 00:40:57,979
I go to bed early,
989
00:40:58,069 --> 00:41:00,436
and I'll have to pee 10 times
between now and then,
990
00:41:00,530 --> 00:41:02,021
including in
about five seconds.
991
00:41:02,156 --> 00:41:04,193
- Go!
- It's your call, Louis.
992
00:41:04,784 --> 00:41:06,491
Because tonight,
993
00:41:06,619 --> 00:41:09,236
you are the most important woman
in the room.
994
00:41:10,248 --> 00:41:12,831
Donna, that is the nicest thing
you've ever said to me.
995
00:41:14,460 --> 00:41:16,042
Dirty Dancing it is.
996
00:41:16,921 --> 00:41:19,038
Faye, funny running
into you.
997
00:41:19,716 --> 00:41:21,958
You appear to be
in fine spirits.
998
00:41:22,051 --> 00:41:24,839
That's because someone
recently reminded me
999
00:41:25,013 --> 00:41:26,754
I'm the guy
it always works out for.
1000
00:41:27,974 --> 00:41:29,636
Your modesty is astounding.
1001
00:41:29,726 --> 00:41:32,389
It isn't about modesty.
It's about character.
1002
00:41:32,603 --> 00:41:35,437
You see, Faye, the reason things
always work out for me
1003
00:41:35,523 --> 00:41:37,731
isn't that I sometimes
cross lines.
1004
00:41:38,109 --> 00:41:40,317
It's the relationship
I have with people.
1005
00:41:41,446 --> 00:41:42,687
What did you do?
1006
00:41:43,072 --> 00:41:45,485
I went to Kevin Miller.
He's an old friend of mine.
1007
00:41:45,575 --> 00:41:48,943
I told him he'd be a fool to pass up
an opportunity to buy SensaTech.
1008
00:41:49,328 --> 00:41:51,695
I also told him he'd be
a fool not to hire back
1009
00:41:51,789 --> 00:41:53,906
the man that built
that company from scratch.
1010
00:41:54,125 --> 00:41:57,368
And what exactly did you do
for Mr. Miller to become his friend?
1011
00:41:57,462 --> 00:41:58,794
I got him out of a jam,
1012
00:41:58,921 --> 00:42:01,129
like the way I'm willing
to let you out of one.
1013
00:42:01,799 --> 00:42:02,799
Excuse me?
1014
00:42:02,884 --> 00:42:05,046
Johnson and Powell
remain SensaTech's counsel.
1015
00:42:05,136 --> 00:42:06,877
You save face,
and all you have to do
1016
00:42:06,971 --> 00:42:08,382
is give Gretchen
back to Louis.
1017
00:42:08,473 --> 00:42:09,473
I don't believe it.
1018
00:42:09,557 --> 00:42:11,844
You're leveraging a client
for your own purposes.
1019
00:42:11,934 --> 00:42:14,722
My client is fine with it.
I came through for him.
1020
00:42:14,812 --> 00:42:17,600
Well, I'm not fine with it,
and I don't play by your rules.
1021
00:42:17,690 --> 00:42:19,932
And what if Gretchen
isn't fine working for you?
1022
00:42:20,026 --> 00:42:21,392
I told him
it was temporary,
1023
00:42:21,486 --> 00:42:23,443
but if you think you're going
to extort me
1024
00:42:23,529 --> 00:42:24,815
into getting her
back early,
1025
00:42:24,906 --> 00:42:27,026
you can hand in your resignation.
1026
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,908
This isn't your firm, Faye.
It's mine.
1027
00:42:30,078 --> 00:42:31,614
And I'm not going anywhere.
1028
00:42:31,704 --> 00:42:32,945
And neither am I.
1029
00:42:33,039 --> 00:42:35,372
And for the record, you said you'd do
anything to win this,
1030
00:42:35,458 --> 00:42:37,290
but you haven't crossed
a single line.
1031
00:42:37,376 --> 00:42:39,163
So as far as I'm concerned,
1032
00:42:39,253 --> 00:42:40,539
I'm doing my job.
